We wanted to call your attention to some legislative information that could impact your Broker License Application. House Bill 0601 changes the eligibility requirements to become a broker from 12 to 24 months. This bill, which is expected to become law, has passed the House and Senate and is awaiting the Governor’s signature. It would become effective July 1, 2008. Persons who have 12 months experience as a sales associate and who want to become a broker should send in their application so that it is received prior to July 1. All broker applications received by the DBPR on July 1, 2008 or later will require 24 months experience. Broker pre-licensing education does not have to be completed prior to the July 1, 2008 effective date, but the application must be received by the DBPR by then. This bill DOES NOT CHANGE any of the broker education requirements. Below, We have included an excerpt from the bill for your review. You can read the entire bill at http://www.myflorida.com/dbpr/re/documents/FREC_FAQs_Final_Rev_0508.pdf http://www.flsenate.gov/data/session/2008/House/bills/billtext/pdf/h060106er.pdf ATTENTION REAL ESTATE APPLICANTS: We recommends that you should make application to take the sales associate license or the broker license at the same time you register for your course.
